The Communards’ sophomore album ‘Red’ consolidated the genius of the musical partnership between Bronski Beat singer Jimmy Somerville and pianist Richard Coles. The Communards straddled pop and the political, fusing synths and hi-NRG production with lush string and horn arrangements to the political unrest and moral panic of late 80s Britain. A global smash upon its release, this remastered and expanded edition features B-sides and 3 remixes, including the Jalapeño mix of There’s More to Love by Clivilles & Cole (better known as C&C Music Factory) and new liner notes from Owen Jones.
